Experimenting with My Hair

I have been experimenting with my hair.

Yesterday I received some great products from my friend Gifty Serbeh-Dunn who is based in British Columbia. She owns a company called Shea Butter Market that I did a story on for Donna Magazine: http://kakonged.wordpress.com. She sent me some lip balms, a great smelling hand cream, and a body, face and hand cream.

I am thrilled to receive these things and started putting the hand cream in my hair to help me to form locks. We will see how it goes. I still have time to take them out if I change my mind. Let me know what you think of them so far in this picture I am including. I apologize for the picture being blurry, however I took it without my glasses and could not tell how unfocused it was.

Zhara: It's actually more of a community of support and motivation more than a personal website per se. I joined a community online photo blog called fotki.com to document my personal hair journey among thousands of other...

Britney Spears Plans Plastic Surgery

Britney Spears is planning to undergo cosmetic surgery because she has slacked off her diet sources say. Spears would like her body to be the way it was before she had kids. Spears has been ripping pages out of magazines to choose what she thinks are her favourite body parts. Sources say Spears is insecure over how much her body has changed since having her kids. She is reported wanting to do whatever it takes to be back to her best, even if that means plastic surgery. Psychologist Linda Blair says that Britney may need more than just plastic surgery to feel better about herself. Blair says people often think plastic surgery is the answer and will solve their problems when it really does not. Spears is looking into getting a tummy tuck, liposuction, breast enhancement and rhinoplasty. She is also looking to get a chemical peel for her facial skin.
